…a box where she was expected to be sweet and sensitive (but not oversensitive); a box for young and pretty girls who were not as bright or powerful as their boyfriends. A box for people who were not forces to be reckoned with.

E. Lockhart

Do not think about guys who have broken your heart six ways. It is mentally deranged to chase after heartbreak.
E. LOCKHART

Broken Heart Thinking
If you don’t want to be in an argument with someone, it is probably best to try to solve the problem, rather than lying around hoping the other person will do it for you.
E. LOCKHART

Lying Philosophical Trying
It shattered something inside me that hadn’t been broken before.
E. LOCKHART

Broken Inside Shattered Something
There’s something about seeing a guy’s feelings written down, something about him taking that risk and committing that heart to paper, that means so much more than anything he could just say.
E. LOCKHART

E. LOCKHART

People Philosophical Thinking
My problem is I can think whatever I think-girl power, solidarity, Gloria Steinem rah rah rah – but I still feel the way I feel. Which is jealous. And pissy about little things.
E. LOCKHART

Girl Jealous Life
The opposite of the life where the girl can’t even speak to the boy she likes; the opposite of the life where the friends aren’t even good friends, and lots of days are wasted away feeling bored and kind of okay, like nothing matters much.
E. LOCKHART

Feeling Friend Good Likes Nbored Opposite Speak
Other people apologize and don’t mean t “Sorry, but you shouldn’t have…” or “Sorry, but I just didn’t…” They apologize while telling you that they were right all along, which is the opposite of an actual apology.
E. LOCKHART

Apology Mean Sorry
Maybe a friend is someone who wants your updates. Even if they’re boring. Or sad. Or annoyingly cutesy. A friend says “Sign me up for your boring crap, yes indeed”-because he likes you anyways. He’ll tolerate your junk.
E. LOCKHART

Junk Likes Want
I sit around too much, waiting for other people to do stuff and angsting about stuff they’ve done, without doing anything myself.
E. LOCKHART

People Stuff Waiting
Love is when you have a really amazing piece of cake, and it’s the very last piece, but you let him have it.
E. LOCKHART

Aaming Cake Cute Love
And this is my life, getting dumped with no warning. Or liking people who don’t like me back, or who don’t like me enough, or not as much as they like someone else.
E. LOCKHART

Enough People Warning
Someone once wrote that a novel should deliver a series of small astonishments. I get the same thing spending an hour with you.
E. LOCKHART

Astonishment Hours Should
How was I supposed to concentrate on my mental health when my therapist was encased in orange sparkle madness?
E. LOCKHART

Madness Orange Sparkle
They do sometimes go crazy, these people, because the world is telling them not to want the things they want. It can seem saner to give up-But then one goes insane from giving up.
E. LOCKHART

Crazy Giving People Sometimes Up
I don’t know if there is a one for me. I think I might like variety.
